At the initial level, Wukong's cooldown time is a whopping five minutes. A normal Clash Squad match lasts for approximately ten minutes, so players can use his ability twice or thrice at the most.

Skyler, on the other hand, has a cooldown time of one minute (first level) which will allow players to use his ability more often. Wukong’s ability has been significantly nerfed in the OB27 update that has rendered him nearly useless.
